Emergency Medical Information Book

           The Tea Tree Gully Club is the Home of the EMIB

 A Community Service project from your Rotary Club and Ambulance Service

The Emergency Medical Information Book - contains all of your information   and medical records which is needed if or when an ambulance is called, and  you need to be transported to a hospital. When paramedics are called, a typical scenario is that distraught family members may be unable to give correct details of the patient’s condition, or the medication they may be on. The paramedics physically have to collect all the patients medication in the house, try and obtain a medical history and take it to the hospital with the patient. This small book contains patient contacts, service or carer provider information, medications and any medical condition, so a paramedic is able to treat and ready a patient for transport to a hospital.
